Yesterday, we remembered Kajetan at his old primary sch STM, in Letchworth. The school planted a tree to celebrate his life. It was lovely to see everyone come together and share their happy memories of him.

Today was an opportunity for students and staff to wear cultural dress. It was lovely to see students proud of their heritage and family traditions! Thank you to everyone who took part.
The main building has all been packed up over the past few days. It is very strange to see empty classrooms and corridors. Lots of memories and history in a building that’s been here since 1968!
We hope you all have a restful half term.

3 of our Yr13 History pupils were in the top 10 for the Holodomor Essay Prize run by the Association of Ukrainians in Great Britain. They analysed this often-overlooked genocide for their essays. We are especially proud of Rachael who was awarded the top prize in the country.👏🏻👏🏻
Testing has been super efficient again today. Another 400 tested and ready for school tomorrow! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
